Gasd,
Don’t feel too bad and neither should It Is What It Is. Longs here are defensive not because of confirmation bias but rather because the waiting has been like going on a long road trip and NWBO has been driving past the rest stops and not telling anyone where the destination is even if we know what the destination is. Anything that remotely can be taken as sowing discord at this point just gets attacked because it looks like another attempt to drive the price down even if only an honest sentiment being expressed.
Like you, many here have expressed some frustration with the time frame involved at one time or another but with manufacturing now lining up towards meeting greater demand than originally anticipated the expectation for news soon is rising. The price action and volume reflect the fact that many current longs are simply standing pat or adding marginally recently in anticipation of news while the waiting continues. So... a bearish tone while in the journal time frame hot zone looks suspicious especially right after flipper44 went to the trouble to lay out the case for the manufacturing timeline emphasis for almost the last 6-7 years and others have been digging up things that point to consulting help being given by those considered competitors in the past and FDA reps pointing to buy in and backing of the use of external controls in cases like what L Phase 3 represents.
Anyway, many longs have run the gauntlet by backing NWBO for good reason regarding the science even while wondering about what management has had to do to get to the finish line and why. In that regard I think many of us have been on the same page at one time or another even if we are on different pages now. Best wishes.
